Since the incorporation of scientific approach in tackling problems
of optical instrumentation, analysis and design of optical systems
constitute a core area of optical engineering. A large number of
software with varying level of scope and applicability is currently
available to facilitate the task. However, possession of an optical
design software, per se, is no guarantee for arriving at correct or
optimal solutions. The validity and/or optimality of the solutions
depend to a large extent on proper formulation of the problem,
which calls for correct application of principles and theories of
optical engineering. On a different note, development of proper
experimental setups for investigations in the burgeoning field of
optics and photonics calls for a good understanding of these
principles and theories. With this backdrop in view, this book
presents a holistic treatment of topics like paraxial analysis,
aberration theory, Hamiltonian optics, ray-optical and wave-optical
theories of image formation, Fourier optics, structural design,
lens design optimization, global optimization etc. Proper stress is
given on exposition of the foundations. The proposed book is
designed to provide adequate material for 'self-learning' the
subject. For practitioners in related fields, this book is a handy
reference. Foundations of Optical System Analysis and Synthesis
provides A holistic approach to lens system analysis and design
with stress on foundations Basic knowledge of ray and wave optics
for tackling problems of instrumental optics Proper explanation of
approximations made at different stages Sufficient illustrations
for facilitation of understanding Techniques for reducing the role
of heuristics and empiricism in optical/lens design A sourcebook on
chronological development of related topics across the globe This
book is composed as a reference book for graduate students,
researchers, faculty, scientists and technologists in R & D
centres and industry, in pursuance of their understanding of
related topics and concepts during problem solving in the broad
areas of optical, electro-optical and photonic system analysis and
design.
